ROBOTS OR DINOSAURS?
Robots, but had you asked me 20 years ago—Dinos all the way.
Love
Love is a flower
it is beautiful and full of life
take care of it and it will grow strong and produce fruit
Love is a flower
neglect it and it dies
slowly but surly it decays it fades to ash

You're so beautiful to me...Like a full moon on a starry night, you are my love, my guiding light, in the darkness.
为什么不能它是我吗?
為什麼不能它是我嗎? why can’t it be me?
Ever the same
Tears pour down my cheeks
like rain drops on a windshield
in the heavy storm of night
puddles of my broken heart fill the creases of my face
The cold numb feeling grasps my soul
my body trembles each time I hear
those words they echo in my ears, like a bell so close it’s all I hear
those powerful words traped in my ears
Dreams of you and me
Thoughts that could never be
Late night visions shown to me
So real are these feelings
These dreams of you and me
But just like shadows on a wall; dancing from fire’s light
Or reflections in a mirror
No matter how close we hold dear
I know deep down inside my heart it can never be real
Nothing more than dreams
Life is dust on the winds of time
This is a small conceptional image of a game character that I drew up in illustrator. The game is in the style of a classic spaceship shooter. The player assumes the role of a tiny squid named Qumi--she must navigate the dangerous ocean while fighting many foes in order to reclaim her eggs. This project is being coded in Python, and will be posted for play as soon as it has been completed.... someday :]
It's a balancing trick, come one come all! Take a gander quick or it all might fall! Watch and wait, I swear it'll be great! Because everything tall, will soon start to shake, and if left unattended it surely will break, shatter and tumble straight down to the ground. What's left is in pieces, and my face is a frown!
